I'm the co-founder and president of the Institute for Humane Education (IHE) www.HumaneEducation.org which offers the only graduate programs in comprehensive humane education (covering human rights, animal protection, and environmental preservation). IHE also offers month-long online courses, workshops, and free downloadable resources for educators and activists. I'm the author of six books including Nautilus silver medal winner Most Good, Least Harm; Above All, Be Kind: Raising a Humane Child in Challenging Times; The Power and Promise of Humane Education; Moonbeam gold medal winner for juvenile fiction, Claude and Medea, and So, You Love Animals: An Action-Packed, Fun-Filled Book to Help Kids Help Animals. I've given a TEDx talk on humane education, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5HEV96dIuY, and I blog at www.zoeweil.com. Find me on Facebook, and follow me at Twitter @ZoeWeil.
